Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a tomato seedling raising device, including a rectangular base 1, a rectangular shell 4, and a water tank 7. Multiple circular grooves 13 are provided above the rectangular base 1, and multiple guide sloping grooves 12 are provided on the front side of the rectangular base 1. A drive motor 16 is installed below the rectangular shell 4, and the rotating shaft of the drive motor 16 passes through the rectangular shell 4. Sliding grooves 17 are provided on the front and rear inner walls of the rectangular shell 4. A lead screw 18 is installed at the upper end of the rotating shaft of the drive motor 16. A side plate 6 is installed below the water tank 7, and multiple electrically controlled valves 8 are installed below the side plate 6. The input ends of the multiple electrically controlled valves 8 are respectively connected to the interior of the water tank 7. Water pipes 9 are respectively sealed and installed at the output ends of the multiple electrically controlled valves 8. Sprinklers 15 are respectively sealed and installed at the lower ends of the multiple water pipes 9. Protective circular shells 10 are respectively fixedly sleeved on the annular sides of the multiple water pipes 9. Drainage holes 14 communicating with the multiple guide sloping grooves 12 are respectively provided on the bottom surface of the multiple circular grooves 13. This design solves the problem that when the original device is used for irrigation, water splashes everywhere mixed with soil, polluting the device and reducing the utilization rate of water resources.

[0020] In the first embodiment of this utility model: a threaded rib 5 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the lead screw 18. The protrusions on the front and rear sides of the threaded rib 5 are slidably connected to two sliding grooves 17 respectively. The side plate 6 is fixedly installed on the upper right side of the threaded rib 5. Through the cooperation of the lead screw 18, the threaded rib 5, and the drive motor 16, the threaded rib 5 can be moved, thereby adjusting the position of multiple protective round shells 10. The sliding connection between the protrusions on the front and rear sides of the threaded rib 5 and the two sliding grooves 17 is to provide guidance for the threaded rib 5. Electric push rods 3 are installed at the front and rear ends of the rectangular base 1. Positioning plates 2 are installed at the telescopic shaft ends of the two electric push rods 3 respectively. Through the cooperation of the two electric push rods 3 and the two positioning plates 2, the potted plant can be clamped. The rectangular shell 4 is installed on the left end of the rectangular base 1. Support columns 19 are installed at multiple corners below the rectangular base 1. The multiple support columns 19 are used to improve the stability of the rectangular base 1 when it is placed. A water receiving tank 11 is installed on the front side of the rectangular base 1. The water receiving tank 11 facilitates the collection of water flowing out from multiple guide troughs 12. The drive motor 16 is a motor with a brake. The use of a motor with a brake as the rotational power source of the lead screw 18 is due to the self-locking function of the rotating shaft when the power is off, which prevents it from rotating easily and further improves the stability of the lead screw 18.

[0021] As a second embodiment of this utility model: In use, the round potted plants with cultivated seedlings are placed in multiple round grooves 13. Then, water is added to the water tank 7, and the drive motor 16 is started. The drive motor 16 drives the lead screw 18 to rotate, which in turn drives the threaded protrusion 5 to move down, which in turn drives the side plate 6 to move down, which in turn drives multiple protective round shells 10 to move down. The inner diameter of the multiple protective round shells 10 is equal to the diameter of the multiple round grooves 13, so that the lower ends of the multiple protective round shells 10 abut against the rectangular base 1, so that the multiple protective round shells 10 cover the multiple round potted plants. Then, multiple electric control valves 8 are started, and at this time, water enters the input of the multiple electric control valves 8. The water flows from the output of multiple electrically controlled valves 8 into multiple water pipes 9, and then sprays out from multiple shower heads 15 to irrigate the plants. The splashing water is blocked by the inner walls of multiple protective round shells 10 and flows into multiple round grooves 13. It then flows through multiple drain holes 14 into multiple guide sloping grooves 12 and into the water tank 11 for secondary use. When the device needs to be moved, two electric push rods 3 can be activated to clamp multiple round potted plants with plants on them with two positioning plates 2, so that the multiple round potted plants are in a stable position and thus have good stability when the multiple round potted plants move on the rectangular base 1.
